A ban­dit has been shot dead by po­lice and two oth­ers are in cus­tody fol­low­ing an at­tempt­ed rob­bery at Good­word Park, West­moor­ings.

Ac­cord­ing to a res­i­dent, at around 1 pm three armed men broke in­to a house at As­cot Road. The home be­longs to rel­a­tives of for­mer Petrotrin chair­man and busi­ness­man, Lind­say Gillette.

A Guardian Me­dia team ar­rived at the scene, at 1.45 pm and was told by po­lice the scene was still ac­tive. Gillette, who was at the scene, con­firmed that all his rel­a­tives are safe.

Life­long res­i­dent Tonya Sin­cere said she was shak­en up by the in­ci­dent and nev­er imag­ined it could take place there.

This sto­ry will be up­dat­ed as more in­for­ma­tion comes to hand.
